Jeff,

Glad Alex is enjoying the FAL. He doesn't need to let the magazine run dry before he does a mag change, he can change a partially empty mag for a full one during a pause then top up the partially empty mag(s) later.

Next time out try a little experiment at 200-300 yards prone comparing the FAL and the M1A. With 20 round magazines and in a good solid prone position shoot as rapidly as you think you can get good hits with someone timing you, then measure both score and mean point of impact as measured from the point of aim. Repeat but with a loud metronome set at 1 or 2 beats per second that the shooter can hear. I suggest multiple shooters to reduce the confirmation bias.

For what he's paying for the advice a suggest he saves up a CMP Garand. Add a new quality barrel and minimal work then enjoy.

S/F, FOG
